Fernandez would be among the hardest guys in the game to justify moving, but for those two guys, you kinda have to do it. My only worry would be whether or not Seager could stick at SS but the Marlins probably don't care as much as most would given that they have an elite defensive SS already in Hechavarria. They'd probably just slide Seager over to 3b at that point.
I'm not sure his value as a 3b is enough to move Fernandez for him, but maybe they do think he can stick at SS and suddenly Hechavarria becomes a very nice piece for a team that has a surplus 3b.
The Cards could offer Reyes, Wong AND Piscotty and it probably doesn't beat the rumored Dodgers deal. It's an outstanding package. The Marlins understand they only have 3 years of control left on Fernandez and I guess they figure they won't be able to re-sign him now that ace starters are fetching $30 million (and he'd hit the market at 26 yrs old so the bidding war will be insane).

No way do I want the Dodgers to get rid of Urias AND Seager.
